Quarterback Sam Bradford spent his first five seasons with the then-St. Louis Rams. After stints with the Philadelphia Eagles and Minnesota Vikings, he is headed back to the NFC West and will sign with the Arizona Cardinals, according to multiple sources.
Bradford, who played college football at Oklahoma, was the first-overall draft pick by the Rams in 2010. He was named the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2010. In seven NFL seasons played, Bradford has registered 19,049 passing yards, a 62.5 percent completion percentage, 101 touchdowns, 57 interceptions, and a passer rating of 85.1.
In Bradford's only season with the Eagles (2015), he passed for 3,725 yards, 19 touchdowns, and 14 interceptions. In his first season with the Vikings, passed for 3,877 yards, 20 touchdowns, and just five interceptions.
After sustaining a torn ACL during a Week 7 game against the Carolina Panthers in 2013 while with the Rams, Bradford missed the entire 2014 season after injuring the same ACL during a preseason game against the Cleveland Browns. On March 10, 2015, he was traded from the Rams to the Eagles.
Last season, Bradford played in just two games for the Vikings due to injuries in the same knee.

Rapoport: 49ers send clear message to teams inquiring about Brandon Aiyuk
Ian Rapoport didn't offer much of an update on the ongoing contract negotiations between the San Francisco 49ers and their standout wide receiver, Brandon Aiyuk. However, the NFL insider emphasized one thing: The team is not entertaining trade discussions at this juncture.
